Bandit In The Night

There aint no stars but i can see just like its the middle of the day Look in my face and say to me you meant to tell me anyway
You took the wind from my sails Really ran me down the rails Left me stranded in the fight Its like i’m drownin by the shore Still i keep comin up for more Just like a bandit in the night
I was a ship you were the shore i turned to you when the waves grew high I saw your lights and nothin more and now i’ll never be warm and dry
You took the wind from my sails Really ran me down the rails Left me stranded in the fight Its like i’m drownin by the shore Still i keep comin up for more Just like a bandit in the night
The ocean pounds just like a heart my heart is poundin like the rain Like ships at sea lovers drift apart but ya make the best of what remains
You took the wind from my sails Really ran me down the rails Left me stranded in the fight Its like i’m drownin by the shore Still i keep comin up for more Just like a bandit in the night
